This Is The Beginning
Reissue of this album from 1970. Early grooves from Leon Pattillo - later a club maestro, but working here in a much rootsier style at the head of Leon's Creation - an ultra-cool funk combo from San Francisco! The album's got a groove that really lives up to the promise of its title - a heady brew of funky tracks played by a tight young group - often with vocals in the lead from Leon and a female singer, but sometimes featuring other group members - adding a nice sense of variety while the players riff away with boundless energy! Pattillo plays some great organ at times - and other instrumentation includes guitar, bass, trumpet, tenor, and even some cool violin. Released on CD and LP with facsimile artwork, in-depth sleevenotes and previously unseen illustrations.
